About Me:
I've been playing drums for about 35 years now, on and off as a hobby. Never had any lessons, can't read sheet music very well, mostly self taught with the help of my lifelong idols like Neil Peart, John Bonham, Mike Portnoy, just to name a few...
The following is a description of my equipment. Hope you enjoy what I do, and thanks to everyone who have subscribed and commented.
